As
requested, Imma expand on what I mean by
smart peacocking.
Back in the day, peacocking was good. Nowadays, every Tom, D
ick and Harry does it. It's no longer unique. Women know this. If you're using it as a trick to "pick up chicks" (as a PUA), its effectiveness has been greatly reduced. Everybody knows about peacocking now. And I mean
EVERYBODY. I mean,
Brian from Family Guy did it!
What I mean about being smart about it is that it should be more subtle,
more elegant, but it should still set you apart. Let me tell you my story:
Back in the day, when I got tired of getting dumped (more than 10 years ago) I started learning. I picked up several teachings, peacocking included. I tried it. It failed. Why? Because it wasn't me. It was
incongruent with who I was. Chicks picked up on it (they're more intuitive than us). As I kept improving, I decided to still keep it but tone it down. Incorporate it into my new, improving personality.
I am not required at work to wear a suit and tie. But I incorporated elements from that attire and molded them into a unique style that works for me for 1) my badboy looks and 2) my current management position. I know I look good. I like it. Women
like it.
Being a sharp dresser, with my own unique style IS my way of peacocking. It sets me apart from everyone else I work with. Knowing I look good is a rush of endorphins. My self-esteem is through the roof. Not only am I the sh
it on the inside, I
AM the sh
it on the outside too. And this translates into a positive attitude when interacting with others. By me feeling good, I make others feel good. It is a whole lot easier to get other people to do what you want when 1) you look good, 2) you have a good attitude and give off a positive vibe and 3) you are polite (
"please" and
"thank you" are words I seldom hear anymore...)
When it comes to women, it's even more important. Looking good commands attention. If you're good-looking (
thanks Mom & Dad!) and dress well... sh
it! You add Tight Game and you're an unstoppable force! All eyes are on you!
"Hey, who's that guy in the tie!?" I hear through the grapevine.
"What's his name? Is he married? Does he have a girlfriend?"
